Spectrum and eigenstates for a model describing optical second harmonic generation
Ying Wu, Xiaoxue Yang
Abstract
Without using the assumption of the Bethe ansatz, we have obtained exact explicit analytical expressions for the energy spectrum and eigenstates in terms of a parameter λ for a model of optical second harmonic generation. We have shown that the parameter λ is determined by the roots of a polynomial of order [( N +1)/4]. Here [ y ] denotes y ' s integer part and N = n a +2 n b with n a and n b being photon numbers of the fundamental and the second harmonic modes respectively. We also obtain explicit analytical expressions for λ for , and explicit analytical expressions for all the eigenstates without showing any interactions between the two modes.
